Summary "The Seventh Regiment: A Record" by George L. Wood is a historical account written in the mid-19th century. The book chronicles the experiences of the Seventh Ohio Regiment during the American Civil War, detailing their formation, battles, and the hardships faced by the soldiers. Wood's intention is to create a permanent record of the regiment's history, encapsulating both their service and sacrifices. At the start of the book, the author sets the stage for the Civil War by describing the significant event of Fort Sumter being fired upon, which ignited the conflict. Wood touches on the public's initial reaction to the war, showcasing the North's preparedness and the South's arrogance. The first chapter details the formation of the Seventh Ohio Regiment as a response to President Lincoln's call for troops, highlighting the eagerness of men from diverse backgrounds joining the cause. It captures the somber yet determined spirit of the soldiers as they depart their homes for Camp Dennison, laying the groundwork for the regiment’s subsequent adventures and trials throughout the war.
